Have your say on the 2017-2021 Council Plan

What are your big ideas for the future of our shire?

The recently–elected Council has to create a brand new Council Plan to guide the work it will do for the community over the next four years. And we want your ideas for the future and any suggestions for improvements. It is important that you have your say by completing a survey, and there are several ways to do that.

It is up to you which method you use, but it would be helpful in the collation of the responses, if as many surveys were completed online as possible.

Go to our facebook page, www.facebook.com/indigoshire and access the survey from there.

You will receive in the post a single page, Special Issue – Council Plan Indigo Informer with 3 questions on the back. Fill it in, fold and staple it and send it back to Council Reply Paid.

The survey closes on 20 January 2017. The calendar below sets out the timeframes for community meetings and listening posts for the Council Plan.

The Community Meetings will allow residents an opportunity to provide feedback on the top priorities that arise from the survey.

Community Meetings (ALL 6pm-7.30pm):

Beechworth - Monday 27 February, Memorial Hall

Rutherglen – Thursday 2 March, Senior Citizens Centre

Kiewa-Tangambalanga – Monday 6 March, Coulston Park Community Centre
